Official Team Fortress 2 discussion thread.

I can't remember, can medics and scouts still conc jump?

Nope, Demoguy and soldier are the only that i know that can "rocket jump"
Scout can tripple jump almost as good as a rocket jump... Medic...no super jump that i know of..
 
Back in TFC, medics and scouts had an alternate grenade called a concussion grenade. Used against enemies, they get all dizzy and can't shoot straight. Use the grenade against themselves and you can outjump superman. They made maps that actually taught you how to do double or even triple conc jumps.

That used to be one of my favorite maps, man I miss bunny hopping.
 
Got my steam account started on my newer laptop. Kinda pissed that I can't transfer my game code to my other steam account. Had to start a new one because I forgot my old account and password.

My steam is Zombie_Viking
 
I still play this once in a while-

Steam name is: Felgacarb (convenient, yes?)

I'll try looking for "TEAM RPF"
 
I play periodically. My Steam name is the same as the name here.

I find it interesting how they've taken the Demoman and made him into a close-combat class where he started as a mid-fielder.

I tend to play as a "jack of all trades" but I suck as a Scout and I'm only so-so as a Spy. Sniper I'm a little better than so-so.

My best class is probably Pyro, partially because it isn't that hard to play as one, but also because I use it with a particular attitude -- namely that my job is to disrupt the other team and irritate the hell out of them, rather than necessarily to destroy the enemy or make a lot of captures or whatever.

I've been getting the hang of playing offense as an engineer, too, lately, using the mini-sentries.



I also have to say that I appreciated the introduction of "Strange" weapons but it looks like they'll be releasing "strange" versions of all the weapons, which is a shame. I was digging that it was bringing back "old school" TF2 prior to all the alternate weapons and such. The alternate weapons are fun, but it gets a bit overwhelming and I find that the game is best balanced with just the basic weapons.

I'm awesome as a Spy even though I have never got any of his other weapons :cry!
 
Really? Log in on Wednesdays, man, and then trade around! :) You can leave your rig on in Training mode (as long as you're actually in the training mode game), and go do something else and you'll collect weapon drops I forget the frequency, but I think you can get between 7 and 12 drops per week over a roughly 8hr period of play. I usually set the thing up, go to sleep, and check on what i've accumulated when I wake up Thursday AM.

Anyway, I can give you at least a Dead Ringer, if you're in need of one. My other spy gear, though, I (currently) only have 1 of for each that are tradeable.


Also, if anyone needs a hand with achievements, I'm happy to help, and can recommend a server on which to do that. (it's an achievement server specifically)
 
(Not finding me? PM sent!)


On a related note, anyone not have Dr. Grordbort's Righteous Bison yet?

I picked up two coupons for it at SDCC, and only need one. I suck with it so far, but it is fun...

First to PM me, I'll send the coupon code (and instructions) to you.

--EDIT: Coupon has been claimed.

Yeah I'd love one
 
Ok guys Mad about this but whenever I connect to a server it crashes! whenever I want to go to character loadouts it crashes any advice?

It seems wonky for me as well, but for me it's the countdown numbers and other fonts that seems to have disappear in-game. might have been the newest steam update.
 
Does 556 hours make you a regular TF2 player? I play a lot, and I'm hoping to do some nice prop guns from the game. My account name is adventrising, so feel free to add me. We should all choose some different props to do. #1 on my wishlist right now is either the Cowmangler 5000 or the Backburner. Either of those done right would be pretty awesome.
